Binary builds bundle all dependencies that can't reasonably be expected to exist on the host. There is experimental support for x86 Android devices like the Nexus Player, but due to the rough state of that port I am not providing pre-built binaries at this time.īlastEm depends on SDL2, GLEW and OpenGL. Would like to port it to the ARM architecture and optimize it further to run on systems as modest as the original Raspberry Pi.īlastEm requires a computer with a 32 or 64-bit x86 processor running Linux, OSX or Windows. It is the only emulator other than Exodus that passes Nemesis' VDP FIFO Testing ROM, can display 'Direct Color DMA' demos and emulates CRAMĭespite this high accuracy, even the most demanding software runs at full speed on modest hardware like a 1.6GHz AMD E-350 laptop. Titan's impressive Overdrive 2 demo and it is the only other emulator besides Genesis Plus GX that can properly run the original Overdrive.
